Solution

In the end of 2017 INTACT in partnership with Atos delivered Bullion servers (Bull’s brand) and DellEMC Data Storage equipment to recuperate the lack of server resources required for critical business-apps.

Implemented solution is a scalable complex. The key benefit of Bull servers is the opportunity to be scaled up to a server with 16 CPUs without necessity to replace the existing equipment. It is important that Atos delivered totally ready to run servers with pre-integrated SAP HANA DBMS.

System of two Bull Bullion S6 and EMC Unity 400 Data Storage System was set up separately. It will be used for testing and debugging.

Servers and Data Storage Systems were set up into the rack and switched to Data Processing Centre via LAN and SAN.

Servers and Data Storage Systems were configured for further usage according to SAP HANA.

Working papers on the project were designed.

Three-year manufacturer’s guarantee with Gold+ SLA and technical support was granted.

Due to the tight deadlines shipment was conducted by air from France where Bull’s server production is situated.

Atos, Bull, Dell EMC solutions were used to build up IT-infrastructure.
